question on r/s -i have 5240 shares avg @ $3.75 i understand that if they do a 1:10 i will go to only 520 shares but s/p from what ive seen here should bounce to $6.00 so going forward tho the price would have to go to $38 ( give or take ) to break even here correct? ive been gambling with this stock since just before their first crl and have been buying all over the place. i have learned so much about this terrible disease i could actually have a conversation with an endo and actually understand what they are talking about - side question if i have some money to play with would it be smart to avg down more or wait until r/s then buy - thanks in advance

I don't know why you're asking advice here, twibs, by having that many shares, you've already demonstrated you're light years ahead of most of us!
Please excuse that flippant response, but I couldn't resist. If you have some more cash to put into this company, and you were to do what I would do, then you'd wait for the R/S, and buy it within a few days after that.

Is thy true that 5,000 shares is a lot for people here!? If so, I am astonished at the amount of time people are spending on this board over a few thousand dollars.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I took it to mean that having that few of shares was what made twib light years ahead... meaning the losses were much less significant.

Help me understand why one would buy after the R/S. I thought that the original investment value doesn't change. If I had more to invest I would buy now and rather than wait. From what I understand, is that far to many people end up chasing the trends rather than getting in front of them. Buy low sell high or buy low and enjoy the embarrassment of riches for the rest of your life. Its worth the risk.

It really doesn't matter how much people have invested. Money is money to all of us. I'm sure their are people that like to look at the boards with 100 shares or 250,000 shares. Cont. good luck

Buy low sell high or buy low and enjoy the embarrassment of riches for the rest of your life. Its worth the risk. Often shorts pile on right after a RS. I guess under the assumption that a whole new group of investors might look at the company due to coverage of RS and might view a $5 stock as more investable than $0.50 stock. Those may well be investors that shorts feel they can easily shake out with a bit of pounding. Just speculation about how it works, but it often does that a stock hammered by shorts prior to a RS will then go down after RS. Also... based on members here it appears a fair number still do not believe a RS will happen... i.e. we'll get extension and some great thing will happen to drive share price up. So there is still expectation downside risk here if/once the RS has been announced for real. I hold a lot, and like Baba, I will not be considering purchasing prior to RS barring some white swan that gets share price moving up. With what's on the table I believe risk of retesting all time lows, perhaps breaching them, continues until after RS is complete. [ babaoriley... why be succinct when I can be verbose ]

My bet is the first day of the reverse split the SP ends in a positive like maybe 5% another words we do a 10-1 at .50 and we are instantly at 5.00 my guess is we close at around 5.25 that first day. The 2nd day is another story it will probably recende once the excitement is over

The "excitement?" Among shorts? Are only hope is a lot of new scripts on March 3. IMO In the end the short term fluctuations do not matter. If Afrezza sells ultimately, we got a winner, and the PPS will take care of itself (for the longs). If it does not sell, then the shorts got a winner, and the PPS will take care of itself (for the shorts).
